Following on from the SEC subpoenaing Investview for information on their iGenius opportunity, the company has come out with new compliance documentation.

There is of course no reference to iGenius’ passive returns trading bot. In fact iGenius flat out lies about the offering altogether.

The following is taken from iGenius’ new compliance documentation
verbatim.

In case the offending compliance text disappears from iGenius’ website,
here’s a screenshot
of how it originally appeared.

Automated Trade Technology

The Company does not offer automated trade technology. In the past, we offered automated trading as a convenience for FOREX users.

The Commodities and Futures Trade Commission reviewed our automated technology and determined that it required a Commodity Trading Advisor.

Since we are committed to providing education and not advice, we entered a settlement on the finding from the CFTC and discontinued the use of automated trade services.

We know automated tools are still available in the marketplace as described below, but we ALSO know promotion or use of this automation requires registration and licensing.

We do not provide these services and we caution our customers about these types of automated tools.

Example of Automated Trading: A company or an individual trader issues a trade signal.

A person pays the company/trader for their signals. The individual then attaches their MT4 enabled forex account to the provider of the trade signal.

Even though the customer attaches their account themselves, and the provider of the signal does not review, monitor or manage the client account, the signal itself is deemed as advice.

Therefore, if the signal is deemed investment advice, then the tool requires a Registered Investment or Commodity Trading Advisory.

The Company does not provide automated trading or tools.

Wow. Just, wow. So uh, a few things.

The CFTC enforcement action pertains to Wealth Generators and happened in 2018.

The CFTC found Wealth Generators was illegally offering access to an automated ROI trading bot. Wealth Generators
settled the CFTC’s fraud charges
for $150,000.

Shortly after Investview rebranded as Kuvera Global. Kuvera Global was
rebranded to iGenius
in early 2021.

For the sake of simplicity we’ll ignore the
securities fraud
that took place under Kuvera Global.

Today if we visit iGenius’ website, we see Crypto Elite bundled with the most expensive $1499 and then $174.99 a month “Elite” membership.

So what is CryptoElite?

In 
iGenius’ own words, 
it’s “AI crypto trading software”.

Seriously, that’s the pitch. CryptoElite is an automated trading bot,
the exact thing iGenius claims it doesn’t provide.

Since we are committed to providing education and not advice, we entered a settlement on the finding from the CFTC and discontinued the use of automated trade services.

The Company does not provide automated trading or tools.

🤖 Quick Answer

What compliance issues did Investview face regarding iGenius automated trading?
The SEC subpoenaed Investview for information on iGenius. The company subsequently issued compliance documentation claiming it no longer offers automated trade technology, stating the CFTC determined their previous automated trading system required Commodity Trading Advisor registration.

Why does iGenius' compliance documentation appear contradictory?
iGenius' new compliance docs deny offering automated trading technology, yet the company previously marketed passive returns trading bots. The documentation references past automated forex offerings reviewed by the CFTC, suggesting regulatory intervention occurred.
